@mattyicee I'm not saying it's good she chilling with him on the block at 1 am on a school night but let's be honest mot people in suburbs and graduate still fall into poverty and drug addiction and never make it, much less a kid from an area like this.

@@SquareNogginwell for starting era a huge population of Americans don’t live in big cities but that aside it is journalism. He goes to unsavory or scary locations for the majority of people and is able to connect and make people who clearly otherwise wouldn’t talk to random strangers and certainly not answer their deep and serious questions with an ounce of actual thought to their answers, something he’s able to at least one time get the prime suspect interviewee to do, self reflect during the interview. He’s able to spell out in plain but eloquent language and terms the point of the video, interview people from different cultures and backgrounds and still summarize and put it into tangible content without it being random and all over the place. If it’s not for you, then it’s not for you and that’s fine, it doesn’t have to be. But I wouldn’t diminish someone’s work just for that reason
@@SquareNogginhe just showing real life I'm frm north jersey so I definitely agree wit u but alot of people don't know this what it's like out there feel me
@@LSCBTHEWAVY Yeah I get it, I'm being a bit rude and bitter too, which is perhaps uncalled for. I've lived like and amongst such people and certainly know a thing or two about indulging in vice. I do worry sometimes that in our modern culture we have done away with _shame_ and ultimately it's not good for anybody. When I was a wayward teen messing around with heroin and promoscuity and the like - what I needed was well adjusted normal people to shame me more, not treat ny degrading lifestyle chocies as "well you do you, who am I to judge, whatever floats your boat, that's just life I guess" Just because this sort of living has become normal, in a broader and more eternal sense it's _not_ normal for humans to live like this, and we shouldn't be taking it for granted that everybody just _gets_ that.
There is something disturbing and dystopian about the idea that a whole flock of police showed up over a speaker, while simultaneously being completely content surrounded by the people they swore to protect slumped over from drug abuse so prevalently that the place was nicknamed "Zombieland".
@@JackParsons2 Loosely using the term "win" when you use it to describe taking a speaker. I feel like if you're forced to go for "wins" that small and meaningless, then that's also representative of a system continuously failing the people it was put in place to protect. Honestly, to even call that a win is crazy. What a useless infrastructure.
It’s not because of the police. It’s because of the mayor. The police have no incentive to arrest these people because they are let out on the same day or next day at most.
I gotta be honest, even though this is an old video. I watched this whenever it was closer to coming out, but I was recently referencing this video for a school assignment based on (1) Brandon's epic journalistic skills (professionalism, respect, politeness, background research, etc.) and (2) Skrilla's religion. I absolutely love this video. I'm so happy I got to come back to it. I hope you see this comment, Brandon, because I seriously love you as a youtuber/content creator. Thank you for what you do.
Brandon running up to the 3 wheeled racecar with a balloon full of nitrous and then the cop car flips it's lights on and he runs away was the funniest shit from the video 😂
17:50 I’m glad you talked to this kid he was direct about staying in school and how this is not cool or tough and how they gotta clean it up. Smart kid man
That one teen who wasn’t afraid to speak out and still in school I love him and I pray that he makes it out and be that football player & pray that he gives his life to the LORD
I picked that up to and the man with the new balance shirt who said you “are helping by bringing awareness” that statement made me sad to feel so unseen and to have so much death around you due to drugs prevails so much in so many cities but this display was disheartening but hopeful to see some youth and older ones speak truth and wisdom to the situation

Trust me I know. Got out of the mess in 2019 right before the pandemic. It was rough but the crazy thing is sometimes I miss it. My run was from 2015-2019. Five crazy years.

@@skillz78its good journalism because brandon is getting the truth out of them while never judging them. Its bad because it seems as if brandon condones this lifestyle, and it shows after he clearly inhaled nos.
I travel through that area daily. He's not over dramatizing the situation at night, and I appreciate him not demonizing people struggling with addiction. Botany of Desire, all creatures have a desire to alter their perception, its nature.
I've literally been on Kensington avenue buying dope when someone aired it out and all the cops just stood and stared. Been clean almost a year now thank God
U must be whyt. That’s why. Congratulations on your Recovery tho.. not much help to keep yourself around it tho, regardless if your helping or not.. your just making it easier for you to slip up tho. Good Luck. I really hope you NEVER go back. Yo there’s NO days off from sobriety 👍🏽
I used suboxone/Medication Assisted Treatment to get off IV fentanyl and I just hit 5 years clean June 1st, 2024. I also am about to graduate with my bachelors in psychology and work as a PRSS/Recovery Coach at the same treatment center that helped me. While suboxone, methadone, vivotrol, sublocade, Brexadi, etc.. may not be the path for you specifically, please don’t listen to people still on drugs discredit opioid treatments. While it does come with its own set of consequences, it’s much better than the alternative and it was the path that worked for me. The environment of Kensington would be near impossible to live a stable sober life in after addiction. I’m not very religious or anything, but God bless those people and please help the people in this video.
My man great work! Comin up on 12 years sober and working to get my CADC. our oaths are different but doesn’t matter we both aren’t shoving needles in our arms no more. Great work! One day at a time. I used to be so judgmental and think the 12 steps are the only way. I no longer think that way. There is multiple pathways to recovery and living. Twelve steps have helped me for sure.
I live near Kensington, this part of Philly is like another world honestly it’s an open air drug market in 2024 in a major city, it’s insane the whole Philly is outta control anymore
If he didn't find JESUS, he's in Hell, sadly! The people in this video who are projected to seem cool are literally the most tormented souls in existence. Skrillex is well aware that he is worshipping Satan and demonic forces. He has sold his soul and wants to take as many people as he can with him to oblivion. GOD/JESUS CHRIST is the only hope anyone has in this evil world.
Being from a small town in Germany watching this video makes me wonder if we even life on the same planet. The shit going on there is just wild. I hope the young lad makes it, because he seems like a nice guy and aware of all the misery going on around him.
So many of us are on it here even in small towns, it's everywhere. We didn't have the tranq not yet at least. It's very scary and you'd be scared how little it done about it. There's a lot of misconceptions about the US
They were told to stand down ever since the George Floyd drama!! It's absolutely ridiculous. I was lucky to get out of their and never have plans to return!!
@@giggitygoo21also near the end of the video while they’re talking and walking you can see him rub his nose real hard and shit 😂 dude got loose for this video
I lived in the city 58 years, Ive seen it all, I try to make the point that most of those poor lost souls are not from the city they are from the suburbs that get stuck here because their local township cops know who they are and get arrested every time coming back to the city with their heroin. Are you originally from the suburbs? Young kids that grow up around these see the horrors at a young age know not to do the drugs. STAY OFF DRUGS KIDDOs.
Dude, this is like the end of times its crazy. People are suffering and the government is sending 100 of millions of dollars overseas for wars instead of using it to help people. Its sickening.
the government is probably creating this tbh, the rulers hate us and think theres too many "useless eaters" rn so death portals like this are exactly what they want
This a whole ass South Park episode. Each part is an indication of an example of bad decisions like the mom talking about raising her son right whole time he hitting a vape in the background and it’s 3am
i mean after every concert or even every sporting tailgate there is nitrous tanks and people with balloons cops don't care unless it starts getting crazy
@@housemane565 Those ones are legal and so are whippets but, you can't just go legally buy a actual nitrous tank that you need a license or know people .
I lived in Philly for four years. Was addicted to painkillers. During covid I couldn’t get a hold of them anywhere. My friend told me to drive to Kensington and Allegheny Ave and ask around. I’ll never forget driving down that street. That was a different kind of hell. Literally looked a scene out of the walking dead.
Nitrous I'd pretty safe aslong as you aren't walking around with a tank if you stay clear.of b12 deficiency and use it breathing oxygen too this is miles better then another drug besides like weed
@@F3ARCyPhERit's one of the only drugs where doing massive amounts in a short period of time is safer than the opposite. You're better off sucking down a 20lb in a day or 2 than using a 20 pounder to do a few balloons every day for weeks or months on end. It doesn't deplete b12 but instead makes your body unable to absorb it efficiently for a few days after ingesting nitrous. Frequency is the key danger when it comes to this stuff but idk anybody who uses nitrous that frequently lol

At 17:42, "the youth" segment that 16yrold broke my heart. I could see the desperation in his eyes and energy. He really wants to get out . He wants an alternative lifestyle. It reminded me of me at one point in life. I was a lone wolf amongst my pack and always walked my own path. Lost a lot of people but perseverance paid off. My son is 16 and graduated high school last week. He never went through anything remotely close to my upbringing. I'm a author of cyberpunk science fiction urban stories, and this young man's energy has just given me material for a character I'm creating
I loved that you felt so strong about that kid, I saw something really genuine in him and can feel that potential coming from him. I hope he finds the military, school or something because you can feel that kid has a good head and heart on his shoulders .

Hi, I grew up in this city and I am not proud of what it looks like lately but I can’t say Iam very proud to hear these young men giving proper advice and telling it how it really is. “You will get no happiness from these streets and if you really want to be successful you have to stay in school and participate in positive things”. Great advice kids please take it!!!
Kids won’t do what you tell them to do, they emulate their role models. It does no good to be a hypocrite who says “stay in school kids”. As a former junkie, I see that more as something an addict will say to morally justify their addiction. It’s like “yeah I’m gonna stay an addict and involved with violence, but at least I’m telling the kids not to follow in my footsteps, I’m a martyr of sorts and maybe I can save multiple lives with the sacrifice of mine”. But the words are hollow if you don’t attempt to live by them in good faith.

@@SquareNogginwell for starting era a huge population of Americans don’t live in big cities but that aside it is journalism. He goes to unsavory or scary locations for the majority of people and is able to connect and make people who clearly otherwise wouldn’t talk to random strangers and certainly not answer their deep and serious questions with an ounce of actual thought to their answers, something he’s able to at least one time get the prime suspect interviewee to do, self reflect during the interview. He’s able to spell out in plain but eloquent language and terms the point of the video, interview people from different cultures and backgrounds and still summarize and put it into tangible content without it being random and all over the place. If it’s not for you, then it’s not for you and that’s fine, it doesn’t have to be. But I wouldn’t diminish someone’s work just for that reason
@@SquareNogginhe just showing real life I'm frm north jersey so I definitely agree wit u but alot of people don't know this what it's like out there feel me
@@LSCBTHEWAVY Yeah I get it, I'm being a bit rude and bitter too, which is perhaps uncalled for. I've lived like and amongst such people and certainly know a thing or two about indulging in vice.
I do worry sometimes that in our modern culture we have done away with _shame_ and ultimately it's not good for anybody. When I was a wayward teen messing around with heroin and promoscuity and the like - what I needed was well adjusted normal people to shame me more, not treat ny degrading lifestyle chocies as "well you do you, who am I to judge, whatever floats your boat, that's just life I guess"
Just because this sort of living has become normal, in a broader and more eternal sense it's _not_ normal for humans to live like this, and we shouldn't be taking it for granted that everybody just _gets_ that.

“You are helping. You’re bringing awareness”
Best quote I’ve heard from this video.
He’s not helping anything. He’s promoting this bullshit. He does a fucking whippet with them for Christ sakes😂😂
There is something disturbing and dystopian about the idea that a whole flock of police showed up over a speaker, while simultaneously being completely content surrounded by the people they swore to protect slumped over from drug abuse so prevalently that the place was nicknamed "Zombieland".
@@JackParsons2 Loosely using the term "win" when you use it to describe taking a speaker. I feel like if you're forced to go for "wins" that small and meaningless, then that's also representative of a system continuously failing the people it was put in place to protect. Honestly, to even call that a win is crazy. What a useless infrastructure.
@@JackParsons2How is that a win? They got 8 cops to take a speaker from people who weren’t causing any problems. It’s a waste of resources dude.
What’s crazy is I just drive thru like it’s normal .. this is literally 3 miles from my house
It’s not because of the police. It’s because of the mayor. The police have no incentive to arrest these people because they are let out on the same day or next day at most.
@@Azazagoth brand new mayor lol said they would clean it all up they cleaned one day
I gotta be honest, even though this is an old video. I watched this whenever it was closer to coming out, but I was recently referencing this video for a school assignment based on (1) Brandon's epic journalistic skills (professionalism, respect, politeness, background research, etc.) and (2) Skrilla's religion. I absolutely love this video. I'm so happy I got to come back to it. I hope you see this comment, Brandon, because I seriously love you as a youtuber/content creator. Thank you for what you do.

I used suboxone/Medication Assisted Treatment to get off IV fentanyl and I just hit 5 years clean June 1st, 2024. I also am about to graduate with my bachelors in psychology and work as a PRSS/Recovery Coach at the same treatment center that helped me. While suboxone, methadone, vivotrol, sublocade, Brexadi, etc.. may not be the path for you specifically, please don’t listen to people still on drugs discredit opioid treatments. While it does come with its own set of consequences, it’s much better than the alternative and it was the path that worked for me. The environment of Kensington would be near impossible to live a stable sober life in after addiction. I’m not very religious or anything, but God bless those people and please help the people in this video.
You should be very proud of yourself!
I am proud of you ❤

Been an open air market since the 80's and 90's except then it was heroin, weed, crack and dust. Now it's all fent and tranq
As I was watching this I looked up YBC Dul, and the first thing I saw was him dead in a shooting 1 day ago
If he didn't find JESUS, he's in Hell, sadly! The people in this video who are projected to seem cool are literally the most tormented souls in existence. Skrillex is well aware that he is worshipping Satan and demonic forces. He has sold his soul and wants to take as many people as he can with him to oblivion. GOD/JESUS CHRIST is the only hope anyone has in this evil world.

Being from a small town in Germany watching this video makes me wonder if we even life on the same planet. The shit going on there is just wild. I hope the young lad makes it, because he seems like a nice guy and aware of all the misery going on around him.
So many of us are on it here even in small towns, it's everywhere. We didn't have the tranq not yet at least. It's very scary and you'd be scared how little it done about it. There's a lot of misconceptions about the US

Nitrous I'd pretty safe aslong as you aren't walking around with a tank if you stay clear.of b12 deficiency and use it breathing oxygen too this is miles better then another drug besides like weed
@@F3ARCyPhERit's one of the only drugs where doing massive amounts in a short period of time is safer than the opposite. You're better off sucking down a 20lb in a day or 2 than using a 20 pounder to do a few balloons every day for weeks or months on end. It doesn't deplete b12 but instead makes your body unable to absorb it efficiently for a few days after ingesting nitrous.

I have quit multiple times, been to detox, etc and continue to wind back up in this hole. You aren't alone and I hope you find better days just around the corner. Stay strong and stay alive my friend
💙💙💙You can make it through whatever it is. Love and believe in yourself. The past is gone, the future ain't here yet, only focus on the present,like what's one thing you can do today to get 1% better. You will get there🤗
My cousin in Indiana was on fet & x real REAL bad... she overdosed in the tub and her oldest daughter found her, all 4 of her kids thought she was dead .... she stopped.... remember, somewhere, to someone, you are needed. Even if you ain't met them yet... even if that person is just, you
At 17:42, "the youth" segment that 16yrold broke my heart. I could see the desperation in his eyes and energy. He really wants to get out . He wants an alternative lifestyle. It reminded me of me at one point in life. I was a lone wolf amongst my pack and always walked my own path. Lost a lot of people but perseverance paid off. My son is 16 and graduated high school last week. He never went through anything remotely close to my upbringing. I'm a author of cyberpunk science fiction urban stories, and this young man's energy has just given me material for a character I'm creating
Where can I find your stories?
I loved that you felt so strong about that kid, I saw something really genuine in him and can feel that potential coming from him. I hope he finds the military, school or something because you can feel that kid has a good head and heart on his shoulders .
I killed all those characters. Cause you give me all this whiteman shit. Empathzilla

Damn brother I grew up in Kensington in the 90’s on jasper and Somerset man I’ve seen things potential Rapes in progress and found dead H**kers while walking to school as a kid. We always had to wear shoes because of the needles. Insane times. Proud of you man you came a long way on TH-cam and you really go farther then most other TH-camrs
Hagert and letterly, shit was bad back in the day but nothing compared to the last 10 years. I would rather be broke in the suburbs than rich in the hood.
FACTS!! I’m from Kensington and women are raped and help against their will in homes on a daily basis. And when they tell the police they say GTFOH they wanted it. ITS SO SAD
@@eamon5468legit the life I’m living broke in Millville my dad got out out in 2004 my mom overdosed in 95 my dad maintained his sobriety and moved us to pennsauken and I’m glad he did man I was down fishtown today and I had to tell my dad we can’t go down memory lane in Kensington lol
@@Willy2Skates Millville is absolutely nowhere my mom was a post master there lol i would actually prefer Pennsauken. Both places 3k× better than kenso.
Cool story about when I Met skrilla at the reading terminal market last year and this man looks rough acts like a dope head but this mf had $10k worth of clothes on and was wearing a very expensive cologne CREED aventus absolu… literally had just came out and was limited to 5 bottles per store at the time, when I got next to him to take our pic I complemented his cologne and he grabbed the bottle out his mans cross body and gave it to me, realest for sure
I believe that ❤

Battyboy fi dead
@@blznft9513 facts still haven’t used the absolu have you seen these prices lol I bought aventus, silver mountain water and green Irish tweed and never gonna pay that much again

Hi, I grew up in this city and I am not proud of what it looks like lately but I can’t say Iam very proud to hear these young men giving proper advice and telling it how it really is. “You will get no happiness from these streets and if you really want to be successful you have to stay in school and participate in positive things”. Great advice kids please take it!!!
Kids won’t do what you tell them to do, they emulate their role models. It does no good to be a hypocrite who says “stay in school kids”. As a former junkie, I see that more as something an addict will say to morally justify their addiction. It’s like “yeah I’m gonna stay an addict and involved with violence, but at least I’m telling the kids not to follow in my footsteps, I’m a martyr of sorts and maybe I can save multiple lives with the sacrifice of mine”. But the words are hollow if you don’t attempt to live by them in good faith.
